Napa Valley, California, USA
This is the best one yet. Still 4 AVA, MT Veeder, Howell Mt, Coombsville, and Stags. Dark, full of dried herb and violet nuances, and a griping rich full body, over performing the last two vintages by a long shot. This one has some great years ahead of it.

Deep ruby color with purple hues. Noticeable extraction on the glass. Nose offers vanilla, sweet tobacco, clove, lavender, molasses, creme de cassis, candied blackberry, cocoa, espresso, mushroom, and earth. Opulent tannins, soft oak, and herbal notes on the palate. Elegance and complexity combined.

2013 Cab. Perfect. Decanted 20-30 mins and it was excellent.

excellent but very young. decanted 3 hours and drank over the next 3. all the other descriptions are dead on. the tannins are very pronounced upon open and very present after 2 hours. it loosened up and was very drinkable after 3.5. tried this against the 2013 Hunnicutt which was more approchable after 2 hours. served with ribeye on the grill paired perfectly
